Entranced Earth
A sweeping analysis of the lasting effects of neocolonial extractivism in Latin American aesthetic modernity from 1920 to the present Looking to the extractive frontier as a focal point of Latin American art, literature, music, and film, Jens Andermann asks what emerges at the other end of landscape. Art in the Global South has long represented and interrogated “insurgent nature”—organic and inorganic matter, human and nonhuman life, thrown into turmoil. In Entranced Earth: Art, Extractivism, and the End of Landscape, Andermann traces the impact of despaisamiento—world-destroying un-landscaping—throughout the Latin American modernist archive. At the same time, he explores innovative, resilient modes of allyship forged between diverse actors through their shared experiences of destruction. From the literary regionalism of the 1930s to contemporary bio art, from modernist garden architecture to representations of migration and displacement in sound art and film, Entranced Earth tracks the crisis of landscape and environmental exhaustion beyond despair toward speculative, experimental forms of survival.
Catheter-Related Infections, Second Edition
This updated reference describes the latest and most effective strategies in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of catheter-related infections (CRIs). The guide describes the pathogenesis of infectious complications while discussing procedures in infection control, catheter and catheter-site care, and patient monitoring and evaluation. This new edition updates the original material and provides new chapters on infections related to urinary catheters and the epidemiology and impact of these infections. Catheter-Related Infections, Second Edition serves as a practical evidence-based reference for detailed guidance on the prevention of catheter-related infections.
Neurobiology of Body Fluid Homeostasis
A timely symposium entitled Body-Fluid Homeostasis: Transduction and Integration was held at Araraquara, São Paulo, Brazil in 2011. This meeting was convened as an official satellite of a joint gathering of the International Society for Autonomic Neuroscience (ISAN) and the American Autonomic Society (AAS) held in Buzios, Rio de Janeiro. Broad international participation at this event generated stimulating discussion among the invited speakers, leading to the publication of Neurobiology of Body Fluid Homeostasis: Transduction and Integration. Drawn from the proceedings and filled with rich examples of integrative neurobiology and regulatory physiology, this volume: Provides updated research...
Digital Encounters
To understand the creative fabric of digital networks, scholars of literary and cultural studies must turn their attention to crowdsourced forms of production, discussion, and distribution. Digital Encounters explores the influence of an increasingly networked world on contemporary Latin American cultural production. Drawing on a spectrum of case studies, the contributors to this volume examine literature, art, and political activism as they dialogue with programming languages, social media platforms, online publishing, and geospatial metadata. Implicit within these connections are questions of power, privilege, and stratification. The book critically examines issues of inequitable access and data privacy, technology’s capacity to divide people from one another, and the digital space as a site of racialized and gendered violence. Through an expansive approach to the study of connectivity, Digital Encounters illustrates how new connections – between analog and digital, human and machine, print text and pixel – alter representations of self, Other, and world.
Constitutional Courts as Mediators
The book proposes an informational theory of constitutional review highlighting the mediator role of constitutional courts in democratic conflict solving.
Treinta años del sistema nacional ambiental
En el marco de la celebración de los veinticinco años de creación del Departamento de Derecho del Medio Ambiente de la Universidad Externado de Colombia, celebramos también los treinta años de expedición de la Ley 99 de 1993. Por esta razón, el Grupo de Investigaciones en Derecho del Medio Ambiente decidió adelantar un proyecto de investigación con el propósito de evaluar el Sistema Nacional Ambiental (sina) desde diferentes perspectivas. Estos veinticinco años han representado un largo recorrido en torno al estudio de las principales problemáticas jurídico-ambientales del país y a la construcción de conocimiento del Derecho Ambiental. Recordamos hoy con gratitud al rector Fernando Hinestrosa, quien impulsó al profesor Oscar Darío Amaya Navas para liderar un programa que para entonces resultaba novedoso en el ámbito nacional; su empeño nos permite recoger abundantes frutos académicos. Muestra de esos frutos es este libro, que hemos titulado 30 años del Sistema Nacional Ambiental, una obra que involucra la evaluación de principios, normas, instituciones y demás componentes del sina e identifica tanto sus falencias como sus oportunidades de mejora.
